I don't understand how Kobe continues to amaze me when I think I've seen it all before. The fallaway banker on Lee, the 'I was gonna pass but I'll shoot at the last second' shot in the lane, the fake shot and spin the other way that had Spike Lee out of his seat, just incredible.

There is no better player in the NBA than Kobe Bryant, there just isn't. You can talk about LeBron all you want, and sure he and maybe some others are comparable in this league to Kobe, but there is nobody BETTER than Kobe Bryant. And even though you don't really want to see your best player take a ton of shots and stuff, every once in a while I'm not gonna get mad at Kobe looking to get his, he only really does it like this once or twice a year.

when John Ireland told Kobe he broke the MSG building scoring record he was very, very happy. I haven't seen him sound that happy in a while.

Ha, I had a different interpretation of that, to me it sounded like bad acting. "Really? Wow", lol he sounded like he was just faking right there, I had to think he knew that MJ had scored 55 for sure and he seemed to be gunning for 60 and then Phil took him out, I thought they both knew the record.

I'm not bashing Kobe at all if you took it that way, I was laughing. I was like "come on Kobe, you don't gotta fake the humility for the camera you knew you were balling", but then maybe he didn't know that 60 was the record and he was just gunning for MJ's 55 and everything after that was gravy.

oh no weez.. i wasnt implying you were.. i was just saying.. i was restraining MYSELF from

its sad when im not that impressed by 61 points by kobe anymore. i expected him to come out big tonight. i was talking to my friend before the game and i told him kobe was gonna go for 60, maybe even 70. sure enough he delivered.
